Some guitars need it, because the bridge resonates so well with the guitar. In one of my guitars, the note E resonates throughout the bridge, and can be a real pain. To fix, I put some foam under the springs. Problem fixed

It's a good idea... I had a similar problem in my Ibanez Rg 520. It's curious the modification done to use his right hand to pick up his guitar when he is playing in the higher frets.. this means that he can only do legatos when he is using it... doesn't he?

Yeah I had the same problem with my strat, I put heat-shrink tubing inside of the trem springs to dampen them just a tad.
